The spoils of war

The world’s press looks at the diplomatic jostling going on concerning Libya now that Gaddafi is no longer in charge. This goes from vying for contracts to taking the higher ground about ridding the planet of a tyrant. The Paris conference on Libya is the focus for the world press review this Friday, 2nd September 2011.

And Muammar Gaddafi features in a cartoon in The Australian (by Peter Brookes of The Times) which shows Gaddafi hiding under a cloak with Saif his son. They are disguised as a camel, and as they move along bank notes drop to the floor. Gaddafi tells Saif to “Shut up and keep walking”.
